Little Yi, this isnt a matter of whether you destroy it or not. Theres n.o.body who will do it. Peng Xingguo said with difficulty.

Your current career is developing quite well. If you make a mistake, it will have a big impact on the two of you.

Why isnt this allowed? Zhang Shumin said, Little Yi already said that the medicine will be destroyed on the spot. What could go wrong? I think youre afraid that shell take the fall for him.

Why are you dragging her into this again? I didnt mean it that way.

Then get it done. Zhang Shumin said. Qingyans my student, and shes just like my granddaughter. Dont try to weasel out of it.

Then Ill give it a try.

Peng Xingguo looked at Lin Yi. Is it urgent? If its not urgent, Ill find some time to bring you guys over.

Before Lin Yi could say anything, Zhang Shumin interrupted, What do you mean its not urgent? Little Yi and the others arent in cla.s.s anymore and they came here in a hurry. It must be urgent. Go do it now.

Seeing the old couple bickering, Lin Yi and Ji Qingyan sat quietly at the side. Neither of them dared interrupt.

The two kids are still here. Keep your voice down. Youre already so old. Arent you afraid of being laughed at?

If theyre not embarra.s.sed, then whats there for you to be embarra.s.sed about?

Alright, alright. Lets not talk about this anymore, Peng Xingguo said.

Ill make a call and ask if shes at the hospital.

Peng Xingguo held his phone in one hand and flipped through his contact list with the other. He found a person named Zhao Dongmei and turned on the public display to show his innocence.

Dong Director Zhao, this is Old Peng.

Senior Brother, I have your phone number. Weve known each other for so many years, why are you still being so polite?

Peng Xingguo felt a little embarra.s.sed by her calling him senior brother. He chuckled a few times to cover up his embarra.s.sment.

Um, are you busy now?

Peng Xingguo didnt directly state his purpose and was polite first.

Theres a meeting later which Im preparing the materials for. Senior Brother, if you have something to say, just say it. Dont be so formal.

Its nothing. I have a student who wants to ask you some questions about Huaxian medicine. Since you have something to do, lets make an appointment to meet tomorrow.

Why push it to tomorrow? This is not an important meeting, so I just wont go. Zhao Dongmei said, Senior Brother, bring your guys over. Ill wait for you in the office.

This sentence, Ill wait for you in the office, made the polite atmosphere become awkward and stuffy.

Thats not good. This isnt anything urgent. You go to the meeting first and dont delay your matters. Peng Xingguo said with a smile, Well come over tomorrow.

Senior Brother, you think I dont know your character? You dont easily ask for help. If you are calling me now, it must be for something important. Come over.

Okay, Ill bring my group over now.

Okay.

After hanging up, Peng Xingguo pretended to be calm. Shes in the office. Ill bring Yanyan and Little Yi over.

Hurry up.

Lin Yi and Ji Qingyan looked at each other and felt a deep sense of guilt. Did they just push Teacher Peng into his lovers arms?

Peng Xingguo got up and went to the bedroom to change his clothes. He went out with Lin Yi and Ji Qingyan and drove the Maserati towards Zhonghai Huaxia Medical Hospital.

Teacher Peng, will Teacher Zhang force you to sleep on the couch tonight because of this? Lin Yi asked with a smile as they drove.

Are you kidding me? Peng Xingguo said nonchalantly. I just gave her some face because you guys were there. She wouldnt dare to say anything if there was no one else at home.

Ji Qingyan smiled as she learned forward.

Teacher Peng, whats the deal with that deputy director? Is she really Teacher Zhangs love rival?

Shes not really a love rival. When I was young, she washed my clothes a few times and gave me instant noodles a few times. It wasnt a big deal. Your Teacher Zhang just grabbed onto this matter and didnt let it go.

Thats it? Thats not a big deal.

Maybe its because the environment was different. Peng Xingguo said.

Back then, instant noodles were a precious item. Even so, she gave me a whole box of it. Itd be like giving a pig to me right now. Peng Xingguo said.

I understand now that you put it that way.

Plus, were both born in the year of the horse. She gave me a wooden horse sculpture similar to one she owned. Your Teacher Zhang still remembers that after all these years. Peng Xingguo said.

Thats not right, Lin Yi said. If youre both born in the year of the horse, and youre already retired. Why is your junior sister still the deputy director?

Schools were different from hospitals.

Professors in schools could be hired back if their performance was outstanding, just like Zhang Shumin was.

Otherwise, she wouldnt have instructed Ji Qingyan during her doctorate studies.

However, a hospital was different. Due to the intensity of the work and the compet.i.tion for jobs, very few people were ever rehired.

Shes young, right? Even though they share the same zodiac sign, it doesnt mean that theyre the same age.

Lin Yi and Ji Qingyan looked at each other in the rearview mirror and thought of an extremely terrifying possibility.

Shes not younger than you by ten years, right?

Ho ho ho Peng Xingguo proudly smiled, Try two decades.

d.a.m.n! Teacher Peng is awesome!

At this moment, the way Lin Yi looked at Peng Xingguo changed. This man was the leader of all sc.u.mbags!

He had to pour tea for the leader.

So much younger. Ji Qingyan suddenly realized. No wonder Teacher Zhang was so aggitated.

She always had that temper. In reality, nothing happened between us. Peng Xingguo said. At that time, I was already in my forties, and this senior was about to go to university. How could she do such a thing? This is such an embarra.s.sing thought.

Ji Qingyan covered her mouth and laughed lightly. Maybe Teacher Zhang was too sensitive.

Yes, yes, yes, she was too sensitive. Peng Xingguo said. Go back and talk to her. Shes already an adult, and she wont let go of this matter. Isnt it embarra.s.sing?

This was true, but Lin Yi was still in awe of Peng Xingguo.

He didnt know if he would be able to receive such treatment when he was in his forties.

It was exciting just thinking about it.

Soon, the three of them drove to Zhonghai Huaxia Medical Hospital.

They took the elevator to the directors office.

In the office sat a middle-aged woman in her fifties. She had taken off her white coat and was wearing a knitted top and linen embroidered pants.

The middle-aged woman wasnt ugly. She was even a little beautiful as her every move was elegant.

Senior Bro, youre here.

Seeing that Peng Xingguo had brought someone in, Zhao Dongmei stood up to welcome him.

Let me introduce her to you. Her name is Ji Qingyan, a student of our university. This is her boyfriend, Lin Yi.

This is my junior sister, Zhao Dongmei. You can call her director Zhao.

h.e.l.lo, Director Zhao.

You are my Senior Brothers students, so you can be considered my students. Dont call me director, just call me Teacher Zhao.

Teacher Zhao, you are so beautiful. You dont look like a fifty-something-year-old person at all. At first glance, you look like you could be Teacher Pengs partner. Lin Yi said with a smile.
